BUG: Fix overlapping radar labels #322

Closed carleyjmartin closed 1 year ago

carleyjmartin commented 1 year ago

BUG

When plotting more than one radar FOV, the labels may overlap if the radars are colocated or near each other. Requested fix by PI.

Priority

Example of the bug

This occurs when FOV is plotted with the radar_label key word is True and the radars are colocated.

Potential Solution(s)

We can add a label position in the SuperDARNRadars class for each radar manually, or we can make an avoidance algorithm for the labels. We use annotations to add the radar label and so I think the first option is more labour intensive but essentially easier.
